Hello, wonderful readers!
I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you all. Over the next few months, I will be diving into the creation of my latest romance novel, "Broken Chains." This story promises to be a captivating journey filled with intense emotions, dangerous liaisons, and a powerful tale of redemption.
What "Broken Chains" is About
Set in the gritty underbelly of Cornwall, Ontario, "Broken Chains" follows the lives of two complex characters, Lucas Reed and Aria Themis.
Lucas Reed:
At 37, Lucas is a ruggedly handsome smuggler trapped in a prison of his own making. His loveless marriage to the sharp and manipulative Fiona has left him yearning for a way out. As the weight of his criminal past bears down on him, Lucas realizes that the life he is living is unsustainable.
Aria Themis:
Across town, 22-year-old Aria takes the stage at a seedy strip club to provide for her two young daughters, Lily and Emma. Though she exudes confidence on stage, Aria's thoughts are never far from her girls. The emotional toll of her job is immense, but it is a means to an end.
Their Fateful Encounter:
One fateful night, in the dimly lit recesses of the club, Lucas's haunted gaze meets Aria's, sparking an undeniable connection between two lost souls. Their loneliness and vulnerability quickly create a risky bond, leading to clandestine meetings where they share their deepest fears and darkest traumas.
A Dangerous Affair:
Their emotional intimacy soon crosses the line into physical passion, but the dangers they face are very real. Fiona grows suspicious of Lucas's absences and hires a private investigator to expose his infidelity. Meanwhile, a botched smuggling run leaves Lucas haunted and more determined than ever to go straight.
As Fiona closes in, the stakes rise precipitously. Lucas and Aria must navigate the complexities of their newfound love and the challenges that come with it. Will they be able to build a future together, or will their dark pasts continue to haunt them?
